Two Minutes

It only took two minutes
Her eyes a stoic green 
Brought me to a beating heart
Brought me to my knee
A trickster, a hipster
I, the man of her dream 
so jealous, so overzealous
She's a drama queen

A two step I won't forget
A date, a dance, or three,
A kiss, a chance,
A real romance, 
A catch, an expiry. 

Two minutes and I slip
I slip into fantasy,
I slip into a state 
Disregarding fate 
Where she is everything. 

Her plane left on time 
Charcoal moonless eve,
Her static kiss sullen, 
A simple "I'm sorry." 

Now she dances so symphonic 
On some cinematic scene, 
An HD portrait, 
Paid well for it,
On a 32 inch screen. 

Her dance gone cold, 
Tired eyes of green, 
Tired of the dance, 
Tired of the dream. 

Still forever I am harbored 
In our two minute ecstasy. 
Never would I come near though, 
She is not the girl for me.
